Commission Meeting Date: September 13, 2005
Date: August 24, 2005
To: Honorable Mayor & City Commission
From: Planning & Economic Development Departmente£t,
RE: Request to Purchase Tax-Reverted Properties
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The State of Michigan is offering the City a number of tax-reverted properties acquired prior
to 2002 and available to us under the "old program" for the bargain price of $300 for the first
five properties and $20 for each additional property after that. Since the City continues to
mow and maintain these lots, even though they are State-owned, it would be advantageous
to the City to take ownership of them. We can then attempt to sell them and get them back
on the tax rolls. The Community and Neighborhood Services Department will be obtaining
seven of the properties from the list for their program, one of which is a home to rehabilitate.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Total cost of the 32 properties is $840.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
Expend the additional $840 necessary to purchase these parcels.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
To approve the attached resolution and to authorize both the Mayor and the Clerk to sign
said resolution and deed.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Land Reutilization Committee recommended approval at their regular meeting of
August 23, 2005.
8/24/05
Resolution No. 2005-8 2 (e)

Re: lneroaclament for IDit.lllq Mollltonq WeDa
Dear Sir:
The purposc of this letter is to provide you with baclcaround on the encroachment
application mbmilted fur purposes of allowing BLDI to inBtall monitoring wells in the
area of the Henry and Laketon intersection in the City of Muskegon.
The need fur the wells i1 due to a confirmed releate of gesoline from the underground
atorage taakl (USTa) serving Ken's Super Serve station, located 011 the northwest comer
of Hemy 1nd Laketon. The releue of paoli= was diiCOvcred in April of 2003 and is
~ked by the Michigan Department ofEnviromnental Quality (MDEQ) u releuc
number C-0154-03. Some invmiptioll work hu been perfomled to date, but m:ently
the MDEQ demanded more prompt aotion in completing the work necessary to fully
delineate the soil and l!'oundwllll:r impact at the lite. The monitorine wells serve to
determine the lateral spread of dissolved eoncenlrlltions of gaaoline in the aroundwater .
.BLDI intends to drill these monitoring wells using either direct push (cores of soil are
removed to open a hole in the ground) or via our traditioDBl hollow stem auger drill rig.
In either case, the soil telli!J8& will be collected and colllllinerized fur disposal. The
ftnilhcd well exposes ollly a fllllh mo1111led, small dilllliCter manhole cover to the public.
These mllllhole covers are boiled in place 11Dd are not ~K:Ceasible without tools. All wells
will be installed in lllldsuped are& of the riahtl of way, with the surface restored to
current conditioll.l followi!J8 installation.
Once inatalled. BLDI anllcipatea accessing and sampling the monitoring wells on a
quarterly basis for approximately 3 to S years. The frequency and duration of the
groundwater samplilliJ entirely depends on MDEQ rcquiremenll for site closure, but
typically closure will not oecUI in less than 3 years time. Once closure bas been
achieved, tho MDEQ requires that the monitoring wells be ab11Dd01lcd in ac:cordanlle with
ASTM standards. Typic:ally, Ibis includes aroutin& tho well closed and removing the
upper portions of the well/manhole wcmbly.

WHEREAS, the City of Muskegon desires to promote economic activity and

Ref: Northern Machine Tool Company- Tool & Die Renaissance Recovery Zone
Dear Brian:
Northern Machine Tool Company is applying for a Tool and Die Renaissance Recovery Zone as
allowed by the Michigan Strategic Fund (MSF). A critical step of the application process requires our
local government to approve the request prior to the State of Michigan reviewing. It is our hope that the
City of Muskegon will adopt a resolution granting a 15-year duration for Northern Machine.
In 2006 Northern Machine will celebrate its 60'" anniversary. We look forward to another 60 years of
doing business in the City of Muskegon.
The City of Muskegon approval of this request will assist us in our attempt to survive in the
economically difficult tool and die business. Low cost countries like China and Korea continue to take a
greater percentage of the specialty work done by our skilled employees.
Northern Machine is one of the eight tooling companies in the Whitehall Township Tooling Coalition
applying for the Recovery Zone.
It is Northern Machines' hope that approval of this designation will assist us in growing our business in
Muskegon and develop additional customers through our Coalition Partners. Two years ago Northern
Machine developed plans for a building addition that would lead to additional equipment and several
added jobs. Unfortunately, the weak manufacturing economy hit us hard in our business sector and
delayed our expansion plans.
We hope that getting the Recovery Zone approval will assist us in moving forward with our Coalition
Partners. This should assist us in stabilizing our business and hopes for long term growth in
Muskegon.
Thank you in advance for your consideration and support.
Very truly yours, ,
·-:::d u/t~~

SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
To replace the existing ten filter turbidimeters at the water filtration plant.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

MEMORANDUM
8/29/05
TO: M. AL-SHATEL, DEPUTY DPW
FROM: R. VENEKLASEN, WATER FILTRATION
RE: REPLACEMENT FILTER TURBIDIMETERS
BACKGROUND
The Water Filtration Plant budgeted for the replacement of the ten on-line filter
turbidimeters. These turbidimeters are required by the Environmental Protection Agency
and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality to ensure compliance with the
finished water turbidity limit reporting. These units provide a snapshot data reading
every fifteen minutes a filter is in use.
Turbidity is a measure of material (particles) suspended in the water column. The
measure is without units but us classified as Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU's).
The existing Great Lakes brand turbidimeters have served the Plant well since their
installation in 1993 as part of the Instrumentation and Control project. Since their
installation the company has been sold and spare or replacement parts have become
difficult to acquire.

RECOMMENDATION
Due to the age of these units, the stringent application and the scarcity of parts it was
determined they required replacement.
The Plant Chief Operator, Kevin Herbert, solicited price quotation for replacement
turbidimeters. I concur with his recommendation that we replace our current
turbidimeters with the 1720E model offered by HACH Company at a cost of $19,500.00
plus shipping and handling.

To: Bob Veneklasen
From: Kevin Herbert
Re: Budgeted Turbidimeter Replacement Purchase
In our continuing efforts to remain in compliance with DEQ and our efforts in
optimizing plant performance I have solicited bids for the purchase of I 0 replacement
turbidimeters.
I have researched the available turbidimeter brands on the market and have reached the
conclusion that the 1720E manufactured and supported by the Hach Company is the best
value and will meet our needs for accuracy and reliability for at least 10 years. The
1720E is considered the industry standard and is the most widely used unit currently
being manufactured. The quote fi·om Hach included ten SC I 00 controllers that will
provide redundancy as one SC can control two turbidimeters. We are currently using this
brand on 5 of our finished water sites without any instance of failure speaks to the quality
ofthis product. Ease of calibration is another important factor in Hach's favor. The total
cost quoted for 10 units including a calibration cube is $19,500.00
I also requested a quote from Great Lakes Instruments. We have used this brand for over
ten years to monitor our finished water turbidity. This company was recently purchased
by Hach Company and it appears they are phasing this line out. We have not been able to
purchase replacement parts and these units are beginning to require more maintenance
and continuing calibration. We were quoted a price of 17,750.00 which also includes a
calibration cube.
The third and foutth quotes was solicited from GFS Chemicals and Russell Mainstream
Supply. These model are new on the market and although promising is unproven at this
point. The measurement range is not as accurate as the Hach's although the accuracy is
the same at plus or minus 2% of reading.
In conclusion, it is my reconunendation we purchase the I 0 turbidimeter 1720E from the
Hach Co. Hach's continued support and technical service have proven invaluable in
ensuring our success with instruments and supplies we have purchased in the past.

- HD Series Features -
Using similar fabrication techniques to our P2 Classic Line, the HD Series is the first of
its kind on the market today. The result of years of R & D, the HD Series features a
hot-dip galvanized steel structure for superior corrosion protection, finished off with a
Spohn Ranch exclusive super-thick monolithic phenolic surface.
This surface is water-resistant, UV-resistant, and withstands extreme temperature and
high impact. It was designed to provide the ultimate balance between smoothness for
safety and proper texture to grip urethane skate wheels. As a result, it is the first
choice of athletes who ride ramps professionally, and is used in pro skateboard and
BMX competitions worldwide.
The single-layer surface features a bolt-through attachment for increased durability.
This equipment has been designed for a more competitive price point through
decreased manufacturing costs associated with only one surface material.
Additionally, working with phenolic material only will facilitate easy maintenance.

Purpose: To insure all veteran graves are properly marked with flags for Memorial Day.
Who we are: Greater Muskegon Memorial Day Committee
Made up of volunteer representatives of veteran groups in Muskegon County:
American Legion Disabled American Veterans
Veterans of Foreign War Marine Corp League
Catholic War Veterans Lakeside Veterans Club
Vietnam Veterans of America
What services we have provided:
I. Publicize Muskegon County Memorial Day events
2. Organize and direct the Greater Muskegon Memorial Day Parade
3. Purchase and distribute flags and markers for veterans graves, for
municipalities who want that service.
4. Oversee placing flags and markers on veterans graves.
5. Provide wreaths and programs for Memorial Day activities.
History of Committee:
For many years Doug Lawton, headed the committee. Procedures were developed where
the City of Muskegon, as well as other municipalities with cemeteries, was provided with flags
for all veterans graves. Municipalities without cemeteries made donations to help pay for flags
and markers. Upon Doug's death Milt Mockerman became the chairman. Present chairman is
Roger Knopf
Background of Laws:
I. The original Act 63 of 1915 required (upon the petition of 5 eligible voters) that the
City pay for flags and markers for veteran graves in cemeteries owned by the city, and
for cemeteries 'generally used by the population of the city'.
2. The Act has since been amended, first to eliminate payment for non-city owned
cemeteries, and then to make payment optional ('may procure') for those cemeteries.
(see 35.831 on the attached sheet).
3. Private cemeteries are required to provide a flag on lL veteran's grave of the request of
a family member. (see 35.832a)
Concern:
In the past, the City of Muskegon has paid for flags and markers for all the cemeteries
within the city limits. This year a decision was made, as relayed by the Cemetery Department, to
pay for only flags and markers used in 'city owned' cemeteries. Payment was denied forSt
Mary's Cemetery and Sunrise Memorial Gardens.
Veterans buried in St Mary's and Sunrise Memorial Gardens are primarily former citizens of
Muskegon. Their service should be honored just as citizen veterans buried in city owned
cemeteries. The requirements in 35.832a would not insure that those veterans would be properly
honored for their service.
F.eguest: The City of Muskegon continue paying the cost of flags and markers for veteran
graves in StMary's Cemetery and Sunrise Memorial Gardens.
